MEGA Frenk Out - Who Next?

[TheOriginalCane]

There's no problem with a corporate leader filling in on an interim basis in a situation like this. He has deep respect for the faculty and the academic mission of the institution. He knows how to lead people. But a permanent president needs to be a member of the faculty and it would be problematic otherwise.

I am torn on this.

On one hand, I see the history of academics leading major institutions.

On the other hand, I've seen F$U select one failed politician after another as its president, and they now have a higher ranking than we do.

So I'm not 100% opposed to going the non-academic route. Needs to be someone very good.

Have we reached out to Temple’s president yet?

You ****ed a horse. I KNEW IT!

Kidding. I’ve been stuck inside of MIA for far too long. I think I’d **** a horse right now if it would get me back to Atlanta.

So Kinky Kelly and the **** Stud?!?!

Serious guy. All business. Big UM Sports fan, particularly football. Has given $$$ to the collective. And he’s Cuban-Lebanese

So…

Is he part of the short sighted only one guy can win at Miami mindset part of the problem or is he part of the we need change part of the solution?

He was a dud. Glad he is gone. Poor leadership and gross arrogance. Known for being volatile. Wife is incredibly power hungry and pulls strings behind scenes.

Wife.... had to google this to confirm...

Shocked is an understatement. I thought for sure...

He's been trying to retire for the last 4 years.

He's part of the "Angry Ibis will complain about anything and everything" theme.

We all know you fantasize about F$U every night. Just change your log-in name to Happy Seminole, nobody will hold it against you.

Or alternate theory they didn’t even let Julio finish out his term because they wanted him out and had an interim ready to go and Ucla just helped moved up the timeline

He is going to UCLA that as an academic institution something that you seem to forgot we are is way higher in the ranks and standings. Plus you get it in reverse order.

Sorry but like it or not Frenk was a good president for UM sports. Way better that Shalala.

We were higher in the standings until he got here. Results matter.

His only contribution was properly delegating that job. Kudos for recognizing one of his weaknesses.

I mention sports! Still UHealth still a cash cow and funding sports. The UM issue is that they are still operating under the Ivy league mentality.. which we are not and is not our student demographic.

I addressed two different comments. Frenk was a detriment to us academically.

Wrong.

A complete misstatement of facts.

Sit down kid and don’t come at me when I literally talked about that multiple times in this thread

Tell me you know nothing without telling me you know nothing. Another fool who thinks frenk was behind the new investment in athletics lol

I will probably get made fun of for this, but it's actually an honor SWFL responded to one of my posts.

You made that really creepy.... It reads weird...
